A compound which liberates reddish brown gas around the anode during electrolysis in its molten state is :

Sodium chloride
Copper (II) oxide
Copper (II) sulphate
Lead (II) bromide

A

Sodium chloride

B

Copper (II) oxide

C

Copper (II) sulphate

D

Lead (II) bromide

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Bromine gas is reddish-brown. During electrolysis of Lead (II) bromide, it gets liberated at the anode. Bromine is a diatomic gas reddish-brown in colour.
